Nice update - no problems so far after updating router and my one sattelite (just by accepting update all). I'm particularly happy to see that it did not autoupdate this time but only notified there was update available. This is very promising - maybe NG is hearing the feedback after all. There are 2 more improvements I'd like to see - there should be Changelog made available to read (before accepting the upgrade), and also it would be nice to have a document available with steps on how to downgrade as part of any firmware upgrade (in unlikely scenario that something bad happens during upgrade we dont' have to go googling around for this, and especially since we are likely without access to internet at that time). If they added these two documents to the upgrade process as far as I'm concerned it would all be perfect in NG Orbi world.

Yup.
As a precaution, I've always kept a previous copy locally for the same reason. If the update went south, I would be able to revert manually via Router/Satellite Firmware Update page respectively.
